Addiction is defined as a chronic, relapsing brain disease that is characterized by compulsive drug seeking and use, despite harmful consequences. â  It is considered a brain disease because drugs change the brainâthey change its structure and how it works.ource: From the laboratories of Drs. N. Volkow and H. Schelbert. Addiction is a lot like other diseases, such as heart disease. Both disrupt the normal, healthy functioning of the underlying organ, have serious harmful consequences, and are preventable and treatable, but if left untreated, can last a lifetime.
there is a dog from Africa called a Basenji, it doesn't bark, it sorta yodels. and also the visila from south America is said not to bark Please don't listen to all of the smart arses. Deaf dogs bark very little. But all dogs bark.
Mastiffs are excellent guard dogs. They go to the door and bark, their hackles stand up, and they look formidable, but Mastiffs, as a breed, are not trigger-happy. They have a gentle, rather than an aggressive, nature. Mastiffs need the company of their human family much more than some other breeds of dogs do.
